Minecraft Snapshot 21w03a
Today's Caves & Cliffs snapshot is particularly shiny! You could almost say it's glowing... Oh wait, that's a squid.
New Features in 21w03a#
- Added Glow Lichen!
- Added the Glow Squid!
Glow Lichen#
- A dim light source that generates in caves
- Use shears to pick it up
- Use bonemeal to spread it along block surfaces
Glow Squid#
Glow squids have been added, but do not yet spawn naturally. You can find spawn eggs for them in the creative inventory.
- Glow Squids are well-lit and can be seen from even far distances!
- When killed, Glow Squids drop Glow Ink Sacs
- Glow Ink Sacs can be used on signs to make the text super visible, even at night! Works with colors!
- Craft a Glow Item Frame by combining a Glow Ink Sac with an Item Frame in a Crafting Table. Any item in a Glow Item Frame is perfectly illuminated, even at night!
- Use an Ink Sac on a sign to remove the glow effect
- Axolotls will attack any Glow Squids they see, so...be careful
